February 2000

The seven years old Kim Myungsoo was playing with his friends in his parent house backyard. Sungyeol was talking animatedly to them about his holiday in Hawaii with his parents. Hoya just listens to him in awe.

“Is it true all the woman ?” Hoya suddenly asked.

Sungyeol smirked in proud. “Yes, they walk with their underwear!”

“Eww.” Myungsoo respond in disgusted. “Why would they do that? That’s disgusting, I’m sure I don’t want to see their hairy body.” That’s remind him of his father when he was at house. That thoughts make him shuddered.

Sungyeol just shrugged. “But my father said it’s like he was in heaven. Surrounded with beautiful and y woman.” He gasped. “Don’t tell anyone. My father said it was supposed to be our secret. Don’t let mom knows.”

“Do you feel you’re in heaven?” Hoya interrupts.

Sungyeol frowned. “I don’t know. I think i also feel that way because I can eat ice-cream every day!”

The boys laughed.

“Myungsoo!”

The boys stop talking when heard Myungsoo’s mom calling for him.

“Yes mother!” He answered. “I’m at the back.”

His mother coming from inside, and smile at the boys from the door. “Boys,” his mother came outside but she’s not alone. There’s a young girl with long brown hair behind his mother, her eyes was round and was small. She was smiled sheepishly at them.

“Myungsoo, this is Suzy. She’s our guest. Can you boys be nice and playing with her?”

The boys look at each other and then to Myungsoo’s mother again. They nodded.

“Sure Mrs.Kim, we will be nice to her.” Hoya said smiling at Suzy.

“Good,” she said and looks at Myungsoo expectantly.

Myungsoo pouted but didn’t say anything. His mother then said something to Suzy and leaves her with them.

“Hi, I’m Hoya. This is Sungyeol and this Myungsoo.” He said pointed to the other boys.

“I’m Suzy.”

“How old are you?” Myungsoo suddenly asked.

“I’m six.”

“We’re seven, we’re older than you. So you need to follow our rules.” Myungsoo said, narrowed his eyes at the girl. He doesn’t understand why his mother wants to them playing with her. Girls are disgusting creature. They loud and easily cry.

Suzy just nodded. “What are we playing?”

“We’re just chatting since Sungyeol just got back from Hawaii.” Hoya said.

Suzy eyes widen when she heard him. Her attention now was to Sungyeol. “How was it like? I heard the beach was beautiful.”

Myungsoo rolled his eyes when the three of them continued their conversation. His eyes never leave Suzy.
